jf1gp_1 Posted September 9, 2023 Share Posted September 9, 2023 I dont know how much in matters but India has put-up a good show. As usually we have gone over-board. My wife feels it wasn't required, I fully endorse going over the top, just gives a glimpse of what we can do. Whats your view ? coffee_rules, raki05 and Lord 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a country trying to find it's feet in the new league and also it's voice. In next 10 years, you will see the maturity and assurance coming. raki05 and jf1gp_1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don’t have very many friends, SA is not an enemy like it was in the 90s, they have mellowed on Kashmir, stopped feeding Pakistan (Pakistan borrowed from China to repay SA loan), MBS is a different beast and it’s good to take sides against Qatar-Iran-Shia nexus. SA, UAE have made peace with Israel and it’s good to join forces here. randomGuy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is going to loose elections this time which is good for Indian govt.

Saudi had to invest in some place and India is the right destination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, then, dress him down in private and stop trade with his country, do something substantive to hurt his position. Just the public insults seem a bit childish. That said, he also knows exactly why he is being sidelined. If it bothers him so much, he can try to come up with specific solutions, or even refuse to make the trip. Instead he seems to be acting like Javed Miandad imitating Kiran More. Petulance. raki05 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Khota Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 I think Modi's relationship with UAE , Saudi and Israel is paying dividends. This rail corridor is a very positive step. Excellent move. coffee_rules and raki05 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is down in polls domestically. His new opponent conservative Pierre Poilievre has over 15 points lead over the woke chewt. He would have lost earlier but is getting support from left wing NDP and Khalistani Hagmeet Singh, will hopefully be rendered irrelevant in Kaneda soon. I wish India call this Khalistani support of Kaneda out more openly. But Trudeau hides behind his NATO boss and makes Kaneda act as the 51st of USA , gets away with murder.

The Indian foreign office has engaged the Canadian counterparts multiple times. They still didn’t do anything. Imagine a country doing a parade portraying a foreign PM assassination and saying it is freedom of expression. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
